3 years ago yesterday, I said goodbye to my dear friend and heart dog, Kobe Bear. 

Despite being able to communicate with him telepathically, I continue to miss my Puff Doggy terribly. There isn’t a day that goes by that I don’t think about him or talk with him. 

Kobe Bear

The only good thing that came from his passing is finding my current Keeshond, Bodhi Bear. I’m grateful Bodhi arrived 3 weeks later because he saved my heart which was shattered into a million pieces.

Sabrina Renee with Kobe Bear

Kobe Bear enjoyed hanging out with his many girlfriends. When Sabrina’s predecessor, Abby, passed on, Kobe immediately befriended baby Sabrina Renee. They instantly became good friends.

When Kobe transitioned, Sabrina befriended Bodhi Bear as soon as they met. They continue to be good friends.

Kobe Bear and MacGuyver

The same thing happened with MacGuyver the Puggle. Kobe and Mac were DFFs* and adored each other. When Kobe passed, Mac and I cried together as our hearts were sad and heavy without our puffy friend.

When Bodhi arrived as a baby Puff, Mac befriended Bodhi, despite not being too fond of puppies. It was clear to me that Mac knew Bodhi was coming.

Life goes on . . .

For animals who are dying, Reiki is an especially powerful, yet gentle tool, to offer your pets and other animals as they go through hospice and the dying process.

Reiki is pure love and therefore offers animals loving support. It helps all species relax, which calms them from pain, fear, and anxiety, making their transition to Spirit more peaceful.

It was an early July morning. Something wasn’t right with my dog, Kobe Bear, a male Keeshond. He started to act funny and walked like he was drunk. Plus he was distressed and anxious. 

The only thing I knew to do, was offer him Reiki and get to the vet.

I continued sending Reiki while waiting to take him to the vets, and during the long 10 minute car ride to the vet. At the time, Kobe and I had no idea he was dying.

Kobe appreciated the Reiki as it calmed him down and helped him relax. Then in an instant, Kobe transitioned in my arms in the backseat of my car as we waited in the vet parking lot. 

I later learned that my puff doggy was suffering from hemangiosarcoma, an aggressive cancer that effects the blood vessels. I remember when his tumor ruptured the afternoon before. Knowing this, however, would not have save his life. 

Although I miss my “Heart Dog” every day, I have never been so grateful for my Animal Reiki practice then on that fateful day. I know Reiki helped my beloved Kobe to die peacefully surrounded in love. It also helped me be present for my best dog when he needed me the most.

May your Spirit soar with the Angels, Kobe Bear!

As I communicated with her beautiful dog In Spirit, I asked my client, “Bella was your ‘Heart Dog,’ wasn’t she?”

My client tearfully replied, “I have never heard of the term, ‘Heart Dog.‘  But now that you say it, that’s exactly what my Bella was — she was my Heart Dog.”

A “Heart Dog” or “Heart Animal” is an animal who opens your heart and helps you live each day with an open heart. 

Qualities that define open-heartedness are loving-kindness, compassion, empathy and unconditional love.

I
have had three Heart Dogs in my life. KC and Kobe Bear were my first
Heart Dogs. I now have my sweet Bodhi Bear, who constantly reminds me to
live in my heart. 

Animals understand the
importance of connecting with an open heart and they know it will deepen
their relationship with you, while making you both happy.

Since
your animals can talk telepathically, they encourage you to spend quality time with
them every day so you can feel their love for you. Plus they want to
feel your unconditional love. 

Want to communicate with your Heart Animals? Or do you want to offer your animal family a Reiki Treatment?
 

I can help. Give me a call at 925.671.9208 to set up an Animal Communication Session or an Animal Reiki Treatment. 

How
does your heart animal help you to live with an open heart? I’d love to
hear about your heart animal, please share your comment below.
